dc.descriptionIn this talk I review a series of recent conceptual developments at the interface of the quantum and gravitational realms. Wherever possible, I comment on the possibility to probe the interface experimentally. It is concluded that the underlying spacetime for a quantum theory of gravity must be non-commutative, that wave-particle duality suffers significant modification at the Planck scale, and that the latter forbids probing spacetime below Planck length. Furthermore, study of quantum test particles in classical and quantum sources of gravity puts forward theoretical challenges and new experimental possibilities. It is suggested that existing technology may allow to probe gravitationally-modified wave particle duality in the laboratory.
